All about Analytical Sciences - Resources related to Analytical Sciences

This list of resources gives access to relevant information with respect to analytical sciences. In case that you look for very specific information please consult the appropriate EVISA "Link list" or "Brief Summary" page related to your topic.

This page is an introduction to statistical tools used for analytical
chemistry. It was developed to help students apply statistical tests
and tools to data sets typically encountered in analytical chemistry.

A package of programs for the quantitative treatment of activity coefficients and a wide range of equilibria in solutions of varying backgrounds, ionic strengths and temperatures. Includes software for speciation calculations and titration simulations.

Chemfinder is the most comprehensive resource for chemical compound data on the Web at this time. Enter the formula, name, molecular weight, or even a drawn structure fragment of a compound and this database fills in the blanks and returns structural formulas and a few other properties, along with compound-specific MSDS links. The database presently contains over 75000 compounds, although detailed data is available only for a few thousand of the most common compounds.

This database gives very fast access to all significant published metal-ligand stability constants with over 22000 literature references and with interactive applications to display speciation curves, to correct for temperature or ionic strength changes etc.

Wolfram|Alpha introduces a fundamentally new way to get knowledge and answers—not by searching the web, but by doing dynamic computations based on a vast collection of built-in data, algorithms, and methods.

This database contains validated lists of methods from various EU member states described as suitable for the
analysis of chemical agents at workplaces. The priority of substances covered here was defined in line with their
relevance to workplace health.

A collection of methods for sampling and analysis of contaminants in
workplace air, and in the blood and urine of workers who are
occupationally exposed. These methods have been developed or adapted by
NIOSH or its partners and have been evaluated according to established
experimental protocols and performance criteria. NMAM also includes
chapters on quality assurance, sampling, portable instrumentation.

OSHA provides an alphabetical list of chemicals that have either a
validated or partially validated OSHA method. Some chemicals may be
listed by their common synonym. The index includes the method number,
validation status, CAS number, analytical instrument and sampling
device.

The EPA publishes laboratory analytical methods used by industries and
municipalities to analyse the chemical and biological components of
wastewater, drinking water, sediment, and other environmental samples
that are required by EPA regulations under the authority of the Clean
Water Act and the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Dr. Paul Gaines present an essential guide for trace analysts at any level of experience. Topics cover all phases of sample collection, preparation, measurement, and data analysis. (All references to trace analysis assume the use of either ICP-OES or ICP-MS for the purposes of this guide.)
